I said it in every other comment that I've made in Comix Zone related videos and retrospectives and I'll say it again. Someone should make a spiritual sequel or even a direct one. This is my pitch for it: - Cel shaded graphics in the line of the Jojo's bizarre adventure games. - Implementation of 3D for the transitions from page to page, for Mortus's hand drawing and for Sketch Turner when jumping from panel to panel. Those things could include 3D that contrasts with a very 2D feel of what happens inside the comic. - A story set decades after the original game in which we learn about the different changes that have happened in Sketch's comics that merges the crazy fantasy aspects of the original with the real world. The story could be Sketch revisiting his old comic backlog, recounting what happened since: Did Sketch really get into a romantic relationship with the fictional Alissa Cyan? Did he ever lose creative control of his work to an editorial? Was it given to other artists? Did it go through a Rob Liefeld like Heroes Reborn stage or an Ultimate version or trippy Alan Moore or Grant Morrison period...?)

Viewtiful Joe is pretty much this game's spiritual successor. A fan gets pulled into his favorite medium and brawls through it using what makes that medium special, joe using movie/film effects like slow mo, zoom in, fast forward, etc. The basic brawling in VJ (ie when you don't have any powers) feels a lot like CZ if slightly faster, more of a deliberate, slower, more calculated use of attacks rather than just mashing the attack button and split second timing and with dodges instead of blocking.

+Oda Swifteye You don't need to cheat to beat the game. Not by a long shot. The game's difficulty is often over stated. It's not a cake walk but the game boils down to: 1.) Knowing the optimal route to take in each level 2.) Managing items (The game honestly gives you exactly what you need to progress, it's just a matter of knowing when to use said items) and 3.) Knowing how to optimally deal with certain enemies (Like the female assassins can be insta-killed by Roadkill, Creeps are easy to bait into jumping kicks, etc). The game takes only 20-30 minutes tops to beat. You also get up to 2 continues. You earn one for beating level 1 and another for beating level 3 I believe.

funny occurence i had as a kid: in germany (at least in former east germany) we hadn't any arcades. we in the 90's were going to a local toy store, where they had some mega drives and super nintendos for you to play. so i was there all afternoon long. :) we had the rule: if you die once, the next in line can play the game and you had to go to the end of the line. and while you had to wait until the person in front of you died, you could have some talks from "gamer to gamer". so it happened that a guy that looked just like sketch (he was younger than him, but looked a lot like him!) was talking to me about the last boss from yoshi's island. he wanted to know how to beat this guy. i told him how he had to do it an he told me to win against the final boss from wario land. i remem ber this so fondly because all of the other older (like 10 to 16 year old guys) were always looking at me like "this girl just happens to be here and doesn't know ho to play". so i thought this was extremely nice from him (maybe just he saw how i played and thought i had some skill :D). such great memories! i wished i knew how this guy was called, but i decided to call him sketch after i knew this game.

Also that Drossin himself pretty much voiced all of the male characters including Sketch Turner. Finally, I'm glad you mentioned overall, him working on Sonic 3 & Knuckles as the guy had nothing to do with Sonic 3's soundtrack as he was apparently too busy working on Spinball, which itself had a problem with the title screen music.

Good review but I really would of mentioned all the puzzle elements. The game is brutally tough but using tricks to destroy barricades/enemies instead of brute force which damages you, using Roadkill to hunt down items for you and so on makes this game MUCH easier. Every other panel feels like a puzzle which when you figure out, makes your next run in that room a breeze so you get that bit further. Lots more stuff to enjoy about the game, multiple routes, good/bad endings, packed with secrets/secret moves like holding the attack button to rip a wad of paper from the background and throw it as a plane. The game is short and tough but packed with creativity and well thought out content in every panel. I actually felt Viewtiful Joe was a spiritual successor to this game, as in a fan gets pulled into his favorite medium and toys/plays with the things that make that medium special, like Sketch jumping between panels/turning into a superhero and Joe using special movie effects like slow down, zoom in, etc. Good review it could of been probably 5 times longer if you listed all of the game's positives :P

There's an immediate plot hole. No cartoonist is that buff or skilled in martial arts.

Its funny growing up in Europe around that area we loved Italian comic books which went from mistery, western, adventure. My fave was Tex Willer and Zagor haha

Great game! I played it a bit when I was a kid. Then a few years ago I made up my mind and decided to beat the game. It's a legendary game indeed.

Comix zone 2 would have to be a game that revolves around the movie adaptation of the first game. I don't know how you could do it but given the 8th that we live in a really well done comix zone 2 would be absolutely insane.

A bona-fide classic I still play periodically. Great visuals and sound, great controls. But Bludgecore hard! A port with a Save function recommended! Cheers for this feature...

I got the Sega Tunes Box Set including Virtual Sonic, X-Men 2 and Toejam and Earl. Was distracted by the first song since its the Sega Tunes version of the Intro.

You know what I remember about this game? Never being able to win. The best I ever did was the...third stage? The snowy mountain place. So much falling...

I remember feeling like such a badass for being able to beat this game. Then I played the re-release in front of my friends a few years back because one of them was frustrated that he couldn't beat it. For some reason, no matter what I did, Mortus would not let me bait him to the bottom of the screen like I always did on the Genesis. Why do you have to make a fool out of me, XBL Arcade?

Still need to play this one. As for comics and videogames, that relationship is still going on. Mortal Kombat X had a fairly robust comic run to coincide and work with the videogame. If you didn't read up on it, the game itself would feel like it was missing important lore.
